Just applied for the 2012 PBS Teacher Innovator award

After a little push by a colleague, I applied for the 2012 PBS Teacher Innovator award. Our partnership with The Interrupters and Kartemquin Films continues to flourish and may now expand to other schools. Last week, my students interviewed Ricardo “Cobe” Williams, who was profiled in The Interrupters. While producing my video application, I realized I ended up making a pretty nice little recap of the event itself. I’ve got some more to add to the entire series as I debrief with students, but, for now, take a quick glimpse at some of my proudest work bridge-building out of my classroom.
